Should club officials demand that non members be charged an additional fee to shoot in events that are sanctioned by National Governing bodies? NRA, USPSA,SASS, etc.
The leaders of one of the clubs to which I belong is attempting to control the fees that match directors charge. They are within their rights to require a financial return to the club. Some places require a percentage of the gross collected or a flat payment that goes to the host club. Guest fees would be appropriate if the match was club level or just for members. However, I don't believe non members of the host club should pay extra when they attend open events where their scores are reported, classifications are determined and National records are at stake. What's your opinion?
